[FAQ] Is it trivial to change a Feathercoin portable wallet file to libdb 4.8?

Version 4.8 is not a requirement, just a recommendation. You can compile your own version and use newer versions of BDB by passing --with-incompatible-bdb to configure.

The main reason it is discouraged is because it breaks compatibility with the pre-built binaries. If you’re building from source you may not care.

But even if you do, it is trivial to convert your wallet back to a 4.8 wallet if you’re stuck with a 5.1 or 5.3 one. Use the bdb tools (packages db4.8-util db5.1-util on Ubuntu):

Code:

db5.1_dump wallet.dat.db5 | db4.8_load wallet.dat.db4

Version 4.8 is not a requirement, just a recommendation. You can compile your own version and use newer versions of BDB by passing --with-incompatible-bdb to configure.

The main reason it is discouraged is because it breaks compatibility with the pre-built binaries. If you’re building from source you may not care.

But even if you do, it is trivial to convert your wallet back to a 4.8 wallet if you’re stuck with a 5.1 or 5.3 one. Use the bdb tools (packages db4.8-util db5.1-util on Ubuntu):

Code:
db5.1_dump wallet.dat.db5 | db4.8_load wallet.dat.db4
[Ref:]
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=502482.0

Well if one needs to convert the db, it would be easier to export the private keys, compile a wallet with the desired bdb version and import the private keys again.

Our precompiled Linux binaries contained in the installation packages care compiled with the default bdb contained in the distributions, so they will work on a given system/distribution.

Good idea but (re: Catch22) I can’t read the wallet.dat to export the private keys, as it says it is corrupt.

A new version of zxing-cpp (zebra crossing QR code library), has been released.

https://github.com/glassechidna/zxing-cpp/pull/57

*   Installation working as a configuration package
*   Fix source listing to not use GLOB per CMake recommendation. Files
    are listed explicitly in source_files.cmake so that if file listing
    changes, CMake can detect it and regenerate as needed.
*   Added debug postfix for libs for side-by-side installation of different
    build variants (libzxing.lib and libzxing-debug.lib on Windows)

Notes:

*  Proper versioning is not being done in the installation config package. If a version is known, it should be added.
*  I had to comment out the windows-specific stuff (core/win32) because it caused compiler issues in Windows SDK headers.

The first time it does preliminary checks it says hash is different to what it then goes straight through CheckProofOfWork()…

hash=d31a46d558974e7b07c6f63a594bfba0fa435659ebca05108f669f58a6d34cfc

then :

hash=000000001bc0c162a3676627559a0ec6f62dd9876ad63d8382859d2ead802875

Neoscrypt is little endian, may be a byte swap will do the trick.

Was fighting with that for p2pool already.

Here is the python code snippet to get it running in p2pool.

 getwork._swap4(pack.IntType(256).pack(x['previous_block'])).encode('hex'), # prevhash
        x['coinb1'].encode('hex'), # coinb1
        x['coinb2'].encode('hex'), # coinb2
        [pack.IntType(256).pack(s).encode('hex') for s in x['merkle_link']['branch']], # merkle_branch
        getwork._swap4(pack.IntType(32).pack(x['version'])).encode('hex'), # version
        getwork._swap4(pack.IntType(32).pack(x['bits'].bits)).encode('hex'), # nbits
        getwork._swap4(pack.IntType(32).pack(x['timestamp'])).encode('hex'), # ntime

Definition of swap4:

def _swap4(s):
if len(s) % 4:
    raise ValueError()
return ''.join(s[x:x+4][::-1] for x in xrange(0, len(s), 4))

Not sure, how to realize that in C++

Testing 0.9.6.2- head

@Wellenreiter @Bushstar
I have tested head and am unable to compile with --qrcodes=yes

undefined reference to ` QRCodeDialog::QRCodeDialog(QString const&, QString const&, bool, QWidget*)’

Wellenreiter

try --with-gui=qt5

qt4 support is broken in 0.9x, but tested first and then selected by configure.

wrapper

I am compiling with the standard switches, exactly the same as before, except now qrcodes=no

./configure --with-gui=qt5 --enable-tests=no --enable-upnp-default --with-qrcode=no --enable-wallet=yes --enable-shared --disable-hardening LDFLAGS=“-L${BDB_PREFIX}/lib/” CPPFLAGS=“-I${BDB_PREFIX}/include/” CXXFLAGS=“$CXXFLAGS -fPIC -m64 -std=c++11”

Wellenreiter

Then check, if you have a qrcodedialog in the …/qt/forms directory.

wrapper

Fixed.

~~I’ve git cloned from head. There is nothing missing and I haven’t done anything to it except add my build.sh and change my compile to qrcodes=no to get it compile…~~

Bitcoin 0.9.x Backports 2

#68

https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/commit/0a94661e8db94e84ecbf1ea45a51fb3c7fb77283

Disable SSLv3 (in favor of TLS) for the RPC client and server.

TLS is subject to downgrade attacks when SSLv3 is available, and
SSLv3 has vulnerabilities.

The popular solution is to disable SSLv3. On the web this breaks
some tiny number of very old clients. While Bitcoin RPC shouldn’t
be exposed to the open Internet, it also shouldn’t be exposed to
really old SSL implementations, so it shouldn’t be a major issue
for us to disable SSLv3.

There is more information on the downgrade attacks and disabling
SSLv3 at https://disablessl3.com/ .
